trd springs help
Hello new to this forum, but after attempting to search I am scratching my head..
I am trying to fix up a 07 Yaris for my sisters first car for when she passes her road test. The car sat for the last year with everything shut down most of the last year in western NY and the car had a few cracked springs. I ordered kyb strut plus for the fronts and then noticed one of the rear springs were cracked as well. The dealer told me that rear springs were 130 a each and would have to be shipped in, and no one had a listing for them at the parts shop. I looked on line and saw that some dealers were selling the trd spring set for 180 for all for corners so ordered those along with rear swaybar after looking through this forum and seeing it helped with wind resistance at highway speeds. When i went to install the trd springs on the kyb struts, it seems like the bottom perch tappers away super quickly and the spring wants to cock to side. when i put ever thing together the op mount seems to not line up flush. For the moment i threw the kyb springs back on the front and moved on to replacing the brakes. I put the trd springs on the struts i took off the car and it seems a hair better, but still cocked to the side a bit at the top. I know im getting a bit frustrated working out in snow, rain, and cold, but am i missing something silly? Does the mount even out once its loaded? Is the lower perch different on these kyb strut plus, or am i missing a lower bushing to make spring seat better? KIMG0734.jpg KIMG0735.jpg KIMG0736.jpg KIMG0737.jpg |
